Don’t ask me why, but my younger sister convinced me to do an at home facial… using ingredients from my refrigerator! She is currently studying nutrition, and had come up with a recipe for a DIY facial mask based upon her research. So, like any good big sister, I trusted her experience, and dove into making my own facial mask. I used the recipe she recommended: plain yogurt (any brand will due, I used Chobani) honey, vitamin C tablets, and green tea.
The first thing I did was finely crush the vitamin C tablets with a muddler. Then I ripped open two green tea bags, and poured the dry tea leaves over the crushed vitamin C. Next I added about a 1/4 cup of yogurt, and about 1 teaspoon of honey. I mixed all the ingredients together thoroughly, then applied it to my face.
OK, OK, I know this whole thing sounds really weird, but I have to confess that while the mask was on my face, it felt so great. It has a cooling affect, and felt really refreshing. I kept it on for about 20 minutes, then washed it off.
I was a little apprehensive at first, to try it, but I am glad that I did in the end. Go ahead, I dare you to try it!
